Sorry, but after getting the basic tent popped out, it is not yet set up. It still needs to be staked, and have the floor zipped in. Also, I would advise always using the 'blast shield'. The blast shield also helps keep it cooler in summer, and covers the windows, so you can have windows open for ventilation during rain. Also, any unvented propane inside the tent is going to leave lots of condensation on the walls and ceiling. To completely setup the tent, you can figure on 15-30 minutes, depending on one's physical limitations and abilities, and what all you do when setting it up. I would rate this as a 3 1/2 season tent out of the box. I think it would easily be a 4 season tent with the addition of a diesel heater, or something like a Propex propane heater, that does not deposit a bunch of condensation on the inside. Bottom line, it needs to be thoroughly dry for packing up and storing for more than a few days.
To reduce the total overall weight of all items being packed in the carry bag and loading misc. items after the carry bag is inside an SUV vehicle. Do you know what the tent and carry bag alone weight is and the dimensions of the carry bag fully packed? I know the poles and stakes etc. can weigh a great deal. I am an 82-year-old woman that wants to travel USA & CA but I will be alone with no help lifting things. 🙂
I would recommend going with the Shiftpod 3. Full kit weighs about 68lbs. This link will show you the difference ruclips.net/video/W6fBtJ5hV3Q/видео.html
I am 70 and own the Shiftpod 3. Indeed the struggle to lift and store in a vehicle is real. Packed up, it is almost 6.5 feet long., and just barely fits in my 6.5 foot long pickup bed. Personally, I would not use it where I will be packing up and moving every day or two. For that kind of travel, I would just sleep in the back of the pickup OTOH, it would be worth it, for me anyway, if I was staying in the same spot for three or more days.. It is roomy and comfortable, and I can stand fully upright in spite of the fact I am 6'2", and could easily accomodate two people and their gear. That is a far cry better than being in the back of a pickup w/canopy, when Mom nature calls at 0200 hours. It's a fine shelter, but takes a bit of work to get it loaded. I load one end in, then lift the other end up and slide it the rest of the way in. Not easy for me, but doable.

awesome will get one!. thank you
Love what you do, and this, is a great video. Thanks!
Thank you so much! That means a lot to us 🙂🇺🇸
Do you think this would work as an extra room sitting on a toyhauler patio deck? We have 3 preteen boys who need more space.
This would be to big for the patio. It's about 14' across each way.

Awesome video! Makes me want to get one. :)
Moop as in moo like a cow haha.
Matter Out Of Place. These tents are insanely popular at burning man where this term is used frequently
Love the concept, but not a fan of big silver things. Do this in some nature-friendly colors, please!
Where's the floor?
The floor can be removed or zipped in.
